Abstract (en)

An HTS microwave circuit comprises a first layer (4) and a second layer (6), the first layer having a first HTS microwave circuit (8) extending between an input (15) and output (16), and the second layer having a second microwave circuit (17) that is coupled to the first circuit. The second circuit (17) has switch elements (19) that are compatible with MEMs technology, or flip-chip technology, but incompatible with HTS material. The switch elements are connected into the second circuit to interact with and control the HTS circuit. <IMAGE>
